And this just about sums us up 1 billion % Or should I say Southgate
Kane, Watkins, Saka, Palmer, Bowen, Foden and Gordon scored a combined 139 league goals last season. That's the firepower Southgate has at his disposal and we somehow have zero threat up front. Embarrassing.

Gareth: listen lads, you need to stop worrying and start playing with freedom. This isn't pressure. I've seen real pressure. When I was Middlesborough boss facing relegation knowing if we failed we'd be down. We'd lose all the assets. The young players all released. People who I see everyday will lose thier jobs. Fans heartbroken. That's real pressure.
Harry: So how did you do it Gareth, how did you overcome it?
Gareth: didn't. Took them down in the end. But that's not the point.

I’m kind of tipping Spain to lift the trophy, but remember 92 Denmark and 2004 Greece!!!
What chance Austria this time around with Wreck it Ralph having the last laugh🤔🤔🤔

England kicked off last night against Slovenia and it took 1 min 32 seconds to sum everything up. From the kick off we spent 1min 32 seconds passing it about at the back. 2 passes back to Pickford before he finally hoofed it up into Slovenia's half were we lost possession. Unbelievable tactics reminiscent of Evatt. I still think Holland threw their game to be in our half of the draw. If the Dutch don't beat us my Italian ancestors will.

In all honesty Woppy I think every game I've watched I've thought the teams would beat us. Maybe except Scotland I think we've been the worst team in this surprisingly good standard tournament. It reminds me of 2010 when we were so poor against Algeria, USA and Slovakia(I think) we crept through and all said well come good Terry, Lampard, Rooney, Gerrard how can we not. But we faced the first good team and got smashed. Also reminds me of 2016 where I can see us all talking about avoiding France and got Iceland and they were like Denmark. Did the basics and shown us up for being tactically all at sea. Worst part of last night was it was a free hit. We were already through. Why not make the very obvious changes to try out Gomez(Tripper cannot stay there), Wharton or Mainoo, Palmer, Gordon, Toney. Such a Southgate thing to do, top the group with 5 points. 1+ goal difference. He's a lucky general ill give him that. (Statistically it's the poorest group in euro history in terms of goals, lack of wins, no team scored over 1 in any game)

It's painful to watch.

To be totally fair soppy it wasn’t quite a free hit as a Denmark win could have seen them top but I do agree that once again we were dire and we could have freshened the team up a bit but I suppose he wanted to give them a chance to show an improvement. Clearly they failed but let’s hope we do better in the coming rounds and not fail as you showed from previous times.

I completely disagree with this Woppy, it was 1 min 30 seconds Anyone bother watching Georgia v Portugal?? Georgia were a breath of fresh air they really were. I know Martinez made a few changes but I still reckon Georgia would have got that result if they’d played Portugals full strength side They would have beaten England with that attacking approach

They were a breathe of fresh air rioch, and now Southgate's luck has continued..... we get Slovakia instead of the Dutch. Should be an easier game but from what we have seen so far, we have no right to count our chickens. The players need to knock on Southgate's door and demand he takes the shackles off otherwise we will soon be coming home. Players must be played in their best positions, take note Evatt.!

It’ll be a draw then extra time then prob penalties where we will rely on Saka to put one away🤔🤔

England/Bolton/Southgate/Evatt🤔🤔 England will never have a better run to the final and will avoid all the so called big names Watching England and Bolton is very much a Southgate/Evatt and I hope there’s a similarity in the story with a happy ending World Cup 2018 - England go out in the Semi’s v Croatia EFL Season 2022/23 Bolton dumped out of the Play-Offs by Barnsley Euro 2020 - England lose to Italy in the final EFL Season 2023/4 Bolton lose to Oxford in Play-Off final (still very painful) Euro 2024 - Could this really be England and Southgate’s turn??? EFL Season 2024/25 Can Bolton do what they’ve failed to do twice in the last 2 seasons and go on to win promotion You only get ONE chance to win the Euro’s or the World Cup, but there’s the option of THREE chances to get promoted Can Southgate be Evatt and can Evatt be Southgate?? Well they both play safe boring football for one thing but I have to shut this dream down right now and say IMPOSSIBLE …. On both counts

I’m Back again
Billy no mates, hoping for an England win that will see us hopefully thrash Switzerland in the next round
But can we get past Slovakia one wonders🤔🤔🤔
I see our exit as I’m not convinced with Southgate but I do hope I’m wrong

And after 7 minutes, they’ve had 3 almost 4 decent efforts on goal, whilst we’ve had 2 yellow cards
Great
AND there it is 😞😞😞
25 minutes of pissin around and they score and to be fair, it’s what they’ve deserved
Bellingham Saka Kane Foden Walker Trippier have all been pants and the rest have been worse than pants
34 mins and we have a corner, can we equalise
COYE 🏴🏴🏴🏴 NO is the answer 😞😞 Never mind, 2ns corned…. NO ref blows for a foul
I really hope Evatt’s watching and learning from this Attacking wingers are the way forward and England don’t posses any, Slovakia do though and that’s why they are 1-0 up

No changes at half time
Well at least we know there’s one very huge change coming after the final whistle and that should be Southgate’s exit
Fkn clueless the man is and boring
